متن کاملAddison's disease due to metastases to the adrenal glands.
A 43 year old patient with Addison's disease secondary to extensive metastases to both adrenal glands is presented. Thirty two previously reported cases are reviewed; in only 13 cases was the diagnosis of Addison's disease confirmed biochemically. Reasons for the apparent rarity of Addison's disease in spite of the frequency of adrenal metastases are discussed. The need to consider the possibil...
متن کاملReview: Adrenal Insufficiency in Liver Disease
Adrenal Insufficiency (AI) is defined as deficient production or action of glucocorticoids resulting from either a structural damage of adrenal glands, namely ‘‘primary adrenal insufficiency’’, or an impairment of the hypothalamic-pituitary axis or ‘‘secondary adrenal disease’’ [1]. Primary AI is rare in general population, with an annual incidence of approximately 6/million adults/year and pre...
متن کاملEnzyme Histochemical Expression of Lipoprotein Lipase in the Liver and Adrenal Glands in Clinically Healthy Rabbits
The liver enzyme lipoprotein lipase (LPL) facilitates the release of cholesterol from lipoproteins and plays a key role in the synthesis of steroid hormones in the adrenal glands. For the current study, 6 male and 6 female clinically healthy New Zealand White rabbits, aged 3.5 months were used. Enzyme histochemical reaction (per Gomori) was performed on fresh cryostat sections, and through the ...
متن کاملThe surgery of the adrenal glands.
The adrenal glands are essential to life. Surgical treatment is governed by whether one or both the glands is involved. Both the cortex and medulla of each gland exercise important physiological functions. When diseased, they give rise to clear-cut endocrine syndromes, but the clinical picture may become obscured by polyglandular interaction. Adrenal disease, as a consequence, is diagnosed earl...
